Below I am posting the best photo I have found which is actually a screen capture from a video, so please excuse the grainy look. Does anybody here know these things? Does anybody else here share the same opinion as me about the look and lineage of this Blaster, who made it and why, anything and everything about this particular ROTJ Bunker Buster DL-44 Blaster? So if anybody has any photos or history about it, I ask that you please post it here in this thread because there has got to be other Star Wars fans, Han Solo fans, or even just DL-44 Blaster fans that want to know about this prop.

Why the Hell was that weapon ever handed to Harrison Ford in the first place?!? What is the story about that perticular Blaster? Who decided that it was ok to use while the camera was rolling? How did they find a Mauser with a foot long barrel and why? Basically everything about that hideous prop and any kind of photos and any stories about how that Blaster came to be on set. I personally think the thing is the ugliest, weirdest, incorrect looking piece of junk ever to not see the silver screen! What I want to know is: Don't get me wrong here, I am in no way trying to build a prop of this Blaster whatsoever.

OK, I have been searching and searching for some descent reference material on Solo's ROTJ Bunker Buster DL-44 Blaster with not much luck at all.
